Yes. I appreciate and support the concept of owning your private key (which is one thing that nostr does, alongside being a permissionless decentralized pubsub network).
But there is a huge leap from that to solving all sociological problems that come with the internet, as he talks about behavioral engineering, manipulation of algorithms and digital addictions.
Also - owning your private key and owning "your data" are two very different things. You don't own any data once you've published it. So I don't know what this means: >>Our data was never for sale, and reclaiming it will become one of the most important political events of the 21st century<<.
It seems like grandiose, propagandistic language. The reality is more complex and nuanced.
